Pasternack’s cross guide couplers are available in three sub-categories: cross guide couplers (4 waveguide ports), cross guide couplers with terminations (3 waveguide ports) and cross guide couplers with terminations and waveguide to coax adapters (2 waveguide ports with either a SMA, Type-N or 2.92 mm coaxial connection).

These couplers operate over eight waveguide bands in the 5.85 GHz to 33 GHz frequency range. They are made with bronze waveguide bodies and are offered with EIA (CPR)-style flanges or UG-style flanges per military standard. Pasternack’s cross guide couplers are available with coupling factors from 20 to 50 dB.

Typical applications for these cross guide couplers include instrumentation, test benches, product development and characterization.
